The line at my precinct was negligible a little while ago. At a neighboring precinct in Silver Spring, Maryland, folks snaked around the library parking lot and getting to the front took roughly an hour. (Both Silver Spring and Maryland are safely Democratic.)

GOVERNING Politics is the place for news and analysis on campaigns and elections. If there's a ballot measure in California, a legislative election in Alabama, a mayoral election in Anchorage or a governor's race in Rhode Island, GOVERNING Politics probably is writing about it. We love everything about state and local politics, from polls and campaign ads to policy debates and demographic trends.
